Polling for the International Committee election vacancy closed at 1200 (GMT) Friday 3 March 2017. Three candidates stood for the vacancy on the International Committee: Paul Campbell, Dr Manpreet Kaur, Dr Fiona King.

Dr Manpreet Kaur has been elected with 58% of the votes and will now serve a three-year term (2017-2019) as an International Committee member.

We thank all three candidates for being willing to stand, and we would also like to say thank you to Catherine Knowles who is stepping down as a co-opted member of the committee.
